I guess it is small fry - but after this, I found that they had ramraided the local gunshop and helped themselves to everything they could. No, of course we're not a warzone - nobody will starve or do without clean water - but there are loads of small businesses which have spent not just years but generations in building their livliehoods - and these have simply been ripped away. They're not big comglomerates or faceless corporate beings. They're local traders and families who have lost their shops and homes. Who had forfeited business insurance because it was too expensive and they hoped to take it up again when things got better.
